I was at a conference of a big coaching class that takes classes for science and biology. And of course, they were advertising their services and showing their results of previous students. I had no interest in science from starting but parents have so I had to attend that conference.
Speaker: So this was our result and we had all country rank in the top 100.
And all this. But what interested for me was coming. He now talking about new students (like me). He went on explaining that there is two brain in our brain (which is just a myth).............
And then, he was talking about setting goals for examination.
Speaker: "If you just want to pass the exam and nothing else. Then set this low goal will cause you to fail.
But if you aim to be a topper of school. Then you will not be a topper in your school. You will be the topper in just your class."
He went on saying, "and if you set a goal very high. Like securing a rank in the whole country then you will easily secure a rank in the state."
And I did what everyone expected to do in their 13s. I forget.
Now 17, I have found out that naming things is a powerful way to remember and execute in your daily life. Now, Grant Cardone's book 'The 10x Rule', he had explained it.
So what is 10x rule?
"Setting targets that are 10 times what you think you want and then do 10 times what you think it will take to accomplish those targets." excerpt from the book 'The 10X Rule'
10X rule in two parts.
1. Setting a target that is 10 times of your normal goal.
2. And then, as you think to do the task you need to work hard. Now, multiply it by 10. This is how much work you need to work to accomplish your 10x goals.
This is unrealistic. I can't do it.
To get extreme success. You need to do something that is extreme. If you keep doing what others are doing. Then you will get the success that is others are getting. That is mediocre. And I don't think you want that.
"Massive thoughts must be followed by Massive Actions"
For example, if you are a writer and have set a goal of writing 500 words per day. Multiple it by 10 and we get 5000 words per day. (500 * 10 = 5000).
If you are a freelancer and for getting clients you are doing some work for free. Multiple it by 10 and work 10 times more.
If you are a programmer and want to make a game. But failed. Now aim to make 10 times bigger game and work 10 times more.
See the pattern?
The action you can take now.
1. Set a target and multiply it by 10.
2. Got the image how hard you need to work? Now multiply it by 10 and this is how much you need to work to achieve your goal.
3. Make a plan to do 10 times more work. You cant work 10 times more without a strong plan.
